Great minds!! I bought my kit last week, cause I needed to send a Balancer and flex plate to Brissy to So I can get rotating assembly balanced for the new engine.!! Thought it was a waste of time sending the stock one. Plus Justin from Tuff Car parts hooked me up with a great price on the kit, like you said comes with two other metal pulleys and a belt!!

how much did you pay for yours?

$/kw is fairly high, so if you're doing it just for power increase then you're better off spending it elsewhere. Unless you get it cheap and are a mechanic so can fit it all yourself with relative ease of course!

Keep in mind that it'll effect all of your auxiliaries. Bionic mentioned power steering but also aircon and alternator will spin slower, and with the borderline performance of both of those standard it may not be a real satisfying exercise.

$/kw doent justify it like you said, but for me it was for the same reason as why I purchased the atomic internals to put in the engine im building. And in the grand scheme of things $270 is cheap insurance, ive spent 7k on all my atomic internals and machine work, im saving on labour by building it myself but atleast I know it will handle the pizzling its going to get, I know its not needed but I want this thing to rev to 7k alllllll day!!
